Snapshot
An archival services client commissioned the digitization and structuring of 4,000+ pages of historical material containing multilingual content (Sanskrit, Arabic, Hebrew, Persian). The objective was to produce accurate, standardized digital records that were easy to consume, searchable, and ready for use within digital repositories.
Multilingual Archives, Simplified
Explore how our workflow converted 4000+ pages of historical scripts into repository-ready data with over 99.9% precision and significantly improved searchability.
Challenge
The source documents featured a mix of ancient scripts, right-to-left languages, varied image quality, and non-standard typographic conventions. These complexities made precise transcription challenging, requiring deep linguistic knowledge and careful handling to preserve meaning while preparing content for digital access.
Turning Point
Our subject matter experts applied specialized, language-informed transcription workflows, drawing on expertise in Sanskrit, Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian to interpret, key, and normalize the material accurately.
This was supported by script-aware processing, including RTL handling, and a two-level proofreading and validation process to ensure accuracy and clarity. Final deliverables included standardized metadata and HTML-tagged output to support clear consumption and improved searchability.
